<<How neutral will ireland be if they suffer the wrath of al quaeda.>>

Ireland has it's own little nest of troubles to deal with Mike....the potential wrath of Al Quaeda being very far down the list.

The reason I asked the question was that you were proposing that the rest of the international community kick in to pay. You, being a proponent of Israeli policy, I thought would be a good person to ask the question. It's a valid question. I guess you don't know the answer, just like I don't!

As for Ireland sending peacekeeping forces, that I can answer. Yes. There were Irish troops in Lebanon in the 80's as part of the UN and I know that my Uncle was part of the peacekeeping forces that were present in the Congo and Biafra in the 60's and 70's.
